Chapter 694

The eastern coast of the Xingyuan Dynasty was attacked by a sirens not long ago, and suffered heavy losses and needed to invest a lot of money to comfort it.

Next, the dynasty would use troops to the Northern Wilderness again, and the money would be consumed like flowing water.

Therefore, the disaster relief funds allocated by the dynasty in this locust plague in Chiye Prefecture are like dropping a drop in the bucket.

Only a part of the lord's mansion in Akano Prefecture can be taken out, and then a part of the lord's family and wealthy businessmen donated it.

With Quan Haoran in charge, the city lord's mansion had to pay, but those aristocratic families and wealthy businessmen were silent and even Quan Haoran had no choice.

What is particularly hateful is that those aristocratic families, wealthy businessmen not only refused to donate money, but some aristocratic families even secretly manipulated the chamber of commerce, hoarded grain, raised the price of grain, and made a fortune.

Zhuo Buqun asked in surprise: "Can't you send troops?"

Quan Haoran shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Lord Hao sneered: "Everything must be done according to the laws of the dynasty. How can you despise the law like Master Zhuo and dare to disobey the imperial edict?"

Zhuo Buqun understood that the Xingyuan Dynasty was very strict, and any aristocratic family did not have deep connections, and even many officials in the court were in charge. If Quan Haoran dared to force those aristocratic families and wealthy businessmen to donate money, he would be impeached immediately.

In addition, the city lord's mansion was secretly interfering, so the wealthy businessmen naturally would not take out the money for those aristocratic families, but instead were rampant.

Zhuo Buqun ignored Lord Hao's ridicule, pondered for a moment, and said, "Give me a list of aristocratic families, I'll visit them one by one!"

Lord Hao mocked: "Master Zhuo came forward in person, which aristocratic family in Chiyezhou dared not give face?

Disaster relief matters will definitely be solved!"

Zhuo Buqun stood up and took a step towards Lord Hao. The powerful deterrence burst out like a storm, pressing Lord Hao hard.

Lord Hao is a civil servant, how could he withstand such terrifying deterrence?

As if the sky had collapsed, my heart trembled wildly, and I felt that my soul would be scattered in the next moment. Then my legs trembled, and a stream of yellow liquid flowed out, and I was so scared that I was peeing.

"As the lord of Chiye Prefecture, the people are in dire straits and don't know how to help them, but they are slanderous. You deserve to die! I dare to drag the Lord of Power back again, I have countless ways to take your life without knowing it!"

Zhuo Buqun directly made a sound in the mind of Lord Hao City.

Lord Hao's head roared, his whole body trembled again, and his body was soaked with sweat.

Only then did he realize that Zhuo Buqun was not a minister like Quan Haoran and others, and he would not tell him any rules and even care about the law. Even if he had the support of Prince Yong, Zhuo Buqun would be easy to kill him.

Seeing the appearance of Lord Hao, Quan Haoran and other ministers of the dynasty were extremely happy, and many officials in Chino Prefecture were shocked.

Zhuo Buqun shook his sleeves and strode away from the city lord's mansion.

The first family he visited was the Zhang family, one of the two major middle-class families in Akano Prefecture, and lived in the city.

Zhuo Buqun took out the Suzaku Order and reported his identity. The servant guarding the gate hurriedly took him to the reception hall of the front house.

After a while, a wealthy middle-aged man hurried to the reception hall with an old man who looked like a housekeeper.

The rich middle-aged man is the head of the Zhang family. He seems to be unfavorable, but in fact he is a half-step Douhuang, with amazing strength.

Zhuo Buqun directly explained his purpose.

"A locust plague occurred in Chiye Prefecture. As a noble family, the Zhang family was naturally unstoppable for donating money to provide disaster relief.

Butler Yang, check how much food you still have and donate half of it!”

The head of the Zhang family agreed readily, which surprised Zhuo Buqun. He thought it would take some verbal trouble.

"No need to check it, the accounts are all in my mind."

Butler Yang said, then closed his eyes and thought for a while, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The Zhang family has not stored much food, only more than 3,000 dan in total."

Zhuo Buqun frowned and sneered in his heart.

Quan Haoran had already asked the Suzakuwei to find out that the Zhang family is the leading family in Chiye Prefecture. It controls more than 30% of the mineral veins in Chiye Prefecture and has an alchemy temple, which is rich and rich.

After the locust plague, the Zhang family hoarded grain. Now the Chamber of Commerce controlled behind the scenes of the Zhang family stored no less than 50 million dan of grain, and they were waiting to sell it at a high price and make a fortune from it.

At this time, he said that it was only more than 3,000 burdens, which shows how dark his heart was.

The head of the Zhang family smiled apologized and said, "Master Zhuo, look, our Zhang family has no excess food, but since I have said it, I naturally cannot regret it. The Zhang family donated half of the food and took out another million low-grade star stones."

"Since the Zhang family is not well-off, there is no need to donate."

Zhuo Buqun smiled, then stood up to say goodbye.

After Zhuo Buqun left, Butler Yang sneered disdainfully: "He thought he was, but he actually came to the Zhang family to pay donations. Giving him so much food and star stones is already considered to give him face. It's really shameless!"

The head of the Zhang family smiled and said, "This person is a young man who is successful and will inevitably become a little more arrogant, but today he is tactful, which makes me less talk."

At this moment, a servant rushed to the living room.

The head of the Zhang family showed displeasure and said majesticly: "What's the matter, you're in a panic?"

"The head of the family, something is wrong. The Akano Prefecture branch of the Bing Alliance suddenly heard the news that it would not take another piece of ore from the Zhang family from now on!"

"Didn't the Bing Alliance say anything about the reason?"

The head of the Zhang family suddenly changed his expression.

Nearly half of the Zhang family's income comes from the ore veins. Once the Bing Alliance refuses to accept ore, who can eat so much?

The Zhang family's losses will be heavy by then.

"I asked, and the people from the Bing Alliance said, let me ask the head of the family, who did the Zhang family offend this time. Master Shen Tiangong of the General Alliance directly sent a message to the branch, saying that he dared to collect a piece of ore in the Zhang family, and everyone in the Bing Alliance went to the mine to mine!"

The head of the Zhang family was stunned and immediately understood, revealing an incredible look.

A moment later, someone rushed over again.

The head of the Zhang family felt an unknown premonition in his heart and asked in a deep voice: "What happened again?"

"Report to the head of the family that the more than 100 other-named alchemists in the alchemy temple will not do anything!"

Boom! The head of the Zhang family could no longer sit still, so he stood up suddenly and shattered the chair beneath him.

"The Zhang family has always been generous to those alchemists. Why do they say they don't do it and then stop doing it?"

"Those alchemists said that if they continue to stay in the Zhang family, the Dan League will remove them..." Once the alchemists are removed from the Dan League, they will be unqualified black households. They will be unable to move forward in the Xingyuan Continent in the future and will be excluded by other alchemists. Who dares to continue to stay in the Zhang family?

"Why did these ungrateful alchemists leave the Zhang family?"

"I heard... some alchemists say that the Zhang family offended a person who was even more powerful than the Dan Sheng. If he offended him, it would be equivalent to offending the entire Dan Alliance."

The head of the Zhang family made a "boom" sound, and a tide caused a tide in his heart. Butler Yang on the side was dumbfounded, feeling that the Zhang family had broken through the sky this time, and a huge disaster was about to come.

After Zhuo Buqun left the Zhang family, he left Zhoucheng and came to the Hu family, which was more than 300 miles away from Zhoucheng.

The Hu family is one of the two major middle-class families in Chiye Prefecture.

Outside the Hu family castle, Zhuo Buqun revealed his identity, and the Hu family fighter who was guarding the gate asked him to wait outside and then go to report the news.

"He really came to the Hu family!"

The head of the Hu family had already received news from the city lord's mansion. When he heard that Zhuo Buqun was coming, he immediately sneered.
